Spring Creek Parents,

   We hope you all have a splendid break!   Remember don’t come back until the 7th of January!  We will be ready to get back to learning day one!  Thank you for all you do for your child’s education.  Here is a little Christmas video. Hoping your holidays will be exciting, relaxing, fun and full of rest.  Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🙂

STEM Fair

This year our STEM Fair will be held on Thursday, January 23rd, 2025. We are transitioning to a more research-based STEM fair, instead of experimenting like the District has done in the past few years. Only 5th and 6th graders will have the opportunity to participate in our Fair, while the younger grades will have the opportunity to observe them throughout the process! It is always best to start thinking about your project early, especially during holiday breaks! There will be two days of After School Support where you can ask Mrs. Kempter any questions and work on your project. If you would like to participate on January 14th or 16th, you will need to fill out an application. You can pick up one from Mrs. Kempter or in the office. For more information, please visit our STEM Fair website here.
